Systems, methods, and apparatus for living object protection in wireless power transfer applications

This invention describes a safety system for wireless vehicle chargers. It uses multiple radar sensors to detect if anything, like a person or animal, is in the charging zone. The system can then intelligently change how big that detection zone is based on factors like the amount of power being transferred.

Why it matters: Filed when vehicle wireless charging was nascent. Advances in automotive radar technology and the increasing adoption of electric vehicles with wireless charging capabilities make this safety system more relevant and feasible now.
